Got to admit, I am tempted...
Clean??? I worry more about lubing the chain.... ;DOriginally Posted by newnut
Very Bling..... won't rust, that's for sure!!!
Diversity is what makes this a brill biking Forum. It would be a boring world if we all liked the same thing. I've got blue dust caps on my bike. ;DOriginally Posted by newnut

Just a few small points on newnuts post
1. It aint cheap - but then it really is 24ct gold!
2. If item is chromed - I will have to strip chrome first.
3. The end finish depends on the start condition - no rusty nails please.
4. Can also do key rings, badges belt buckles etc starting at around afiver for small items.
5. We are running a few test pieces to see how the cobalt hardening stands up to wear - hence the kick plates. We'll keep you posted.
My Daytona is slowly getting the gold treatment - I know it's not for everyone but I love it. Chrome is so yesterday don't you think?
:-)
I guess if you can do heel plates then coating Aluminium isn't a problem?
Can do - yes - but a longer process.
I need to zincate first to stop oxidisation, then plate with nickel, then gold.
The blade ones are steel - so just polishing, activating the steel and straight to gold plate
Hmmm, will chat more about this when you bring your bike in for it's valet, got some ideas forming![]()
Sweet
Gonna try doing my ali kick plates this weekend - so we'll see how they turn out.
Looking forward to the 19th and nice shiny bike [smiley=thumbsup.gif]
